Abstract

A linear regression equation is comprised of the objective variables and the explanatory variables. The objective variables are comprised of the L1 carrier phases, the L2 carrier phases, the C/A code pseudorange, the P(Y) code pseudorange, the clock error data, the delay data of the ionosphere, and the delay data of the troposphere that related with every satellite respectively. The explanatory variables are comprised of at least the integer ambiguity and a receiver's position.The receiver's position has been linear-approximated by using the estimation results of the passed receiver's positions. Applying a least square method to the regression equation, the integer ambiguity and the receiver's position is estimated.
